Hi Rob Well, now that they've stopped slumming ....... A few days ago, I decided to conduct an experiment. I turned off the PM receiving capability on my profile to see how many mod-porchers would be willing to contact me publicly as opposed to privately, of which there were many. In other words, who were my friends. Not surprisingly - no one has, except Wstera and he doesn't matter. Well actually, a few people surprised me very much. I am well aware of how that works, because when I was considered "okay", I too would receive PM's asking me not to respond publicly to "so and so" because "he" doesn't like what's being posted. What happens is that you're ignored on the public board - kind of ostracized. I think of the term blacklisting, and unfortunately, it works. Reminiscent of McCarthyism and most tiresome. I've been watching tributes to Trudeau all evening. He was truly a remarkable man and practically single-handedly shaped Canada into what is it today. He was passionate, a visionary and probably believed in Canada more than any Prime Minister we've ever had. I mourn his passing. Good night Rob, rose
